The accuracy and portability of depth cameras have increased by a lot in recent years, which allows for advanced 3D scanning of the environment for robotic applications. In this thesis we have developed a system that uses a depth camera mounted on a robot arm to identify and localize arbitrary objects, and give hints on how to move the camera to get better localization results. The system works by
This Master thesis work was performed in Ericsson AB, Lund. It studies and validates two classes of algorithms to be used in mm-wave massive MIMO antenna arrays, for their use in the future 5G mobile communication systems. The first class of algorithms relates to the calibration of the transceiver (TRX) chains responses of the antenna array and makes use of the antenna array mutual coupling, which
Neurodegenerative disease or injury often result in devastating consequences for affected individuals. Treatment options available remain inefficient, and the hunt for new innovative approaches to halt and reverse the effects of neural cell loss continues. Regenerative medicine focuses on a combination of cell transplantation coupled with tissue engineering approaches (3D scaffolds and biomaterial
Denna uppsats handlar om att undersöka och analysera om Sverige skulle kunna stärka skyddet för arbetstagare när det kommer till frågor som rör lön, genom att införa allmängiltigförklarat kollektivavtal. Undersökningen kommer att göras genom att jämföra Sverige och Finlands kollektivavtalssystem, hur de är uppbyggda och vad som är specifikt för respektive land. Länderna i fråga är till synes väldiThis essay is about investigating and analyzing if Sweden could strengthen the protection for workers when it comes to questions relating to employment wages, by introducing extended collective agreements. This will be done by comparing Sweden's and Finland's systems of collective agreements, how they are constructed and what's specific for each country. The countries in question are v
Skatterätten är ett stort rättsområde, sett inte bara till dess rättsliga reglering, utan även till antalet rättshandlingar som har skatterättsliga konsekvenser. En av dessa bedömningar gäller vilket skattesubjekt, d.v.s. vilken fysiska eller juridiska person, som ska ta upp en viss intäkt till beskattning. En annan är till vilket inkomstslag en intäkt ska bestämmas. Huvudsyftet i uppsatsen är atThe field of taxation is a wide field within Swedish law, not only due to the big amount of legal regulations, but also to the number of legal transactions carrying taxation consequences. One specific topic that is under constant judgment is to which person, i.e. which physical or legal person, a specific income should be allocated. Another one is in which income class a specific income should be
Den här uppsatsen berör ett på senare tid väldigt omtalat ämne, nämligen preskriptionstiden för sexualbrott mot barn. Syftet med uppsatsen är att ta reda på om det ur ett rättssäkerhetsperspektiv är lämpligt att helt ta bort preskriptionstiden för sexualbrotten mot barn istället för att endast ha den specialreglering som idag finns i Brottsbalkens 35 kap 4§. Utredningen är rättsdogmatisk och ser t
Bakgrund: Propofolsedering har blivit ett alternativ till traditionell sedering under koloskopi, och procedurrelaterad propofolsedering har utförts i flera länder av grundutbildad sjuksköterska. Syfte: Denna studie syftade till att utröna om den postoperativa vårdtiden samt förekomsten av smärta skilde sig åt mellan de två sederingsmetoderna. Metod: Data från 285 patienter som genomgått sedering u
A model used in risk based land use planning in Sweden in order to estimate the frequency of road accidents leading to the release of dangerous goods has been evaluated. The evaluation is based on a literature review and a review of fire and rescue service reports. The main conclusion is that single- vehicle accidents have a much greater risk of release of dangerous goods than multiple-vehicle acc
Bakgrund: personer med någon form av demens på särskilda boenden, kan uppleva sig understimulerade vilket leder till en frustration, även för sjuksköterskan. Sjuksköterskans uppgift är att minska lidande och främja en personcentrerad omvårdnad varvid vårdhundar kan vara ett redskap i arbetet att skapa en meningsfullhet i tillvaron och ökad livskvalitet. Syfte: Sammanställning av befintliga forskni
Title: For the benefit of the realm and the bliss of the people. The structure and significance of the confession, from the Church Order of 1571 to the Church Law of 1686 and Church Manual of 1693. The confession played a central role in Sweden during the 17th century. The only way for a Christian person to reach salvation and eternal life was through confession. Further on, confession served as
South East Asia, and Thailand in particular, are experiencing rapid population ageing. In Thailand older people are increasing in both proportion of the population and absolute number. Adaptations are needed to support this ageing population and to prevent poverty in old age. Since 2009 Thailand has had a minimum universal social pension, the Old Age Allowance (OAA) for all citizens aged 60 and ov
Although nanoparticles (NPs) are very small, their field in science is currently growing very large. There are several biological, medical and technical applications possible for NPs when bound to proteins. Protein-NP interactions are difficult to predict and therefore a lot of fundamental research is yet to be completed. This study is an attempt to contribute with the aim to explore the interacti
Issue of study: The plastic injection moulding industry has become highly competitive in terms of lead times and pricing, following an increase in low-cost manufacturing from Asia, as a part of the full supply chain. To remain competitive, mould tool manufacturers are looking to complement new tool manufacturing with local after-sales services in countries where their mould tools are being used. U
I 23 kap. 6 § 1 st. BrB stadgas straffansvar för den som underlåter att i tid avslöja ett förestående eller pågående brott. Skyldigheten att avslöja brott gäller vissa utvalda allvarliga brott, som exempelvis mord, mordbrand och våldtäkt. Bestämmelsen används sällan i rättspraxis och det saknas för närvarande något prejudicerande avgörande gällande hur underlåtenhet att avslöja brott ska tillämpasFailure to reveal a crime is criminalized in Chapter 23, Section 6, first paragraph of The Swedish Penal Code. The obligation to reveal a crime does only apply to a few serious crimes, such as murder, arson and rape. Currently, a valid precedent from the supreme court regarding the interpretation of the provision does not exist. The provision is rarely applied by the courts of law. A possible expl
Marknadsmissbruksrättslig reglering förbjuder personer att olagligen röja insiderinformation till en eller flera andra personer. Det finns emellertid fall då det är legitimt att röja insiderinformation. Röjande får ske som ett normalt led i fullgörande av tjänst, verksamhet eller åligganden. Om en marknadsaktör lämnar information i samband med en marknadssondering anses det ske som ett normalt leMarket abuse regulation prohibits unlawful disclosure of insider information to one or a multiple of persons. However, there are cases when it is legitimate to disclose insider information. Disclosure can be made in the normal exercise of an employment, a profession or duties.

In digital integrated circuits, memories are often a limiter for main performance, power and area. Over the past decade, integrated memories have gained dominance in terms of area and power cost. In applications like machine learning or image processing the area share can be above 80% consuming more than 50% of the total power budget. On-chip memories in CMOS technologies can be categorized as sta
This paper discusses primarily the schism between the European Commission and Berlin around the controversial pipeline Nord Stream II. The paper both analyses German and the European Union’s argument about Natural Gas in a somewhat general sense and in respect to Russia in particular. The paper also tries to bring clarity into why Europe is so indecisive when it comes to energy policies and argues
We develop methods for estimation, inference and optimization of causal effects from observational data with continuous treatments. We present a counterfactual prediction method based on the potential outcomes framework that estimates the expected value of a potential outcome given a treatment level and confounders. We show that the method identifies the average generalized treatment effect (AGTE)
Recording of medical procedures makes it possible for medical staff to review their work, learn from the mistakes and produce material for education. Medical videos tend to be long, which has an impact on usability and raises issues concerning memory storage. The aim of this master thesis is to make the material more user-friendly with an intelligent toolbox based on machine learning and image an
I den vetenskapliga artikeln ”The Lady Doth Proteset too Much: Kosovo and the turn of Ethics in international law”, presenterar Martti Koskenniemi en teori, gällande hur den internationella juristen använder moral som ett argument för att legitimera humanitära interventioner. Faran i detta blir enligt Koskenniemi att stater som redan besitter makt och militära resurser kommer använda lagen som ett
